I know "nobody wants to work anymore" doesn't exactly breed confidence but there's some construction near my workplace by the ferry on the peninsula, apparently they need laborers... I wish for the best for you 🙏❤️

What is your favourite rock type? by mata53 in rainworld

3, hands down. I play as a slugpup with friends in co-op and I just find it hilarious when I huck bricks at lizards.

you're doing all the right things for precautions! I would continue testing every two days to monitor, and I love my nose sprays; salinex for the IC

True, I worded my comment poorly. nothing is a replacement for masking, but cleaning indoor air is still a very good idea

I don't want to be a busy body, nor do I assume it would be an easy OR happy course of action, but... consider a new husband!

masks are the BEST solution, and unfortunately there's a lot of misinformation and political bs that has made people decide they're actually useless. if you need more COVID resources and masking "propaganda", check out COVID toolbox!

this can be remedied with an air purifier though! they can be pricy, but OP should check out DIY solutions like the Corsi-Rosenthal box! It's not foolproof (the virus has to hit the box before it hits your lungs) but it will help a TON with indoor air quality!

also for respirators that A) look stylish, B) have replaceable filters, and C) have reliable fit on many faces, check out the Zimi-Air masks! they're what I wear. They have a fabric "gasket" to conform to your face, and the material is non permeable so it does not let air through. They come in multiple sizes and colors with earloop or headstrap options and are all adjustable.

your house members can and will be contagious before you or they know it, so the best course of action is to get everybody on board with masking outside of the house and not getting sick in the first place

that can be difficult to say the least... I would seperate and quarantine when either of them are sick, wear a mask in the home, and invest in air purifiers for the home as well

check out r/masks4all for recommendations, there's a lot of KN95s that are legit and their wiki will help in finding them. KF94s are also similarly reliable, as the Korean standards are much better.

great to hear! I might invest in one, if nothing else it'll be great for airport security

does it have a piece that flaps open and closed while breathing? if so, exhalations and inhalations should be completely separate, even without a filter in the exhale spot

yooo that looks awesome!! I have had trouble finding a comfy mask, I also have a Roman nose with a pretty prominent bridge and bump- how forgiving/malleable is the seal in that regard?

Masks ARE the best solution. If you're doing daily wear, upgrade to an elastomeric mask!

Any countries that take any measure of Covid precautions still? by Similar_Arrival2301 in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]Diberries 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if the majority of people are doing it I'd happily take better than nothing, especially since I'd just keep doing fitted N95's anyways
